Lisko's American life

Zhang You looked agitated. Today, he felt the joy of fishing after a long absence, but unlike in China, he often sits for a day and there are few small fishes.

"You came here on horseback? This horse looks strong."

Zhang You's light turned to the quark by the side of the tree, and his eyes started to light up.

"Uncle can ride a horse?"

Lisko picked up some leaves from the side, spread it on the ground, and sat down.

"When I was a soldier, I was in Tibet. At that time, I used to ride horses. Speaking of which, I haven't been riding for many years."

Zhang You's eyes are full of reminiscences of the past. Time is the most ruthless thing, and often many years have passed before you find it.

"That. Try it?"

Liske suggested with a smile.

"Well, maybe I forgot."

Zhang You's mouth refused, but his eyes had turned to the horse.

"It's okay, I'll help you look at the fishing rod. You go for a run and you will be back in a few minutes."

Li Sike continued to persuade.

"Then I will try."

Zhang You smiled heartily, and didn't twitch.

Lisko took the fishing rod and watched Zhang You slowly approach the quark in a somewhat cramped manner, and then untied the reins.

Zhang You still has a set. He knew that the horse was suddenly mounted by a stranger. He must have reacted fiercely. He took the quark and walked slowly on the grass on one side for a few laps, stroking its cheeks as he walked.

Seeing that Quark was not too resistant, he stepped on the stirrups and rode up slightly strangely.

"Enough."

As soon as he sat down, Quark wanted to jump a little. He quickly got down and continued to stroke Quark's cheek.

After a while, Ma's mood calmed down, and he sat up straight.

He shook the rein lightly, Quark also began to trot, Zhang You also began to follow the strength of the ups and downs.

Seeing the horse running away slowly, Li Sike also began to relax. He could see that Zhang You could still ride, and he also retracted his feet ready to get up.

At this time, he felt the fishing rod start to shake, this is a fish hooked.

He quickly turned his attention to the lake and looked at the buoy above.

"it is good."

Seeing the right time, Lisko lifted the fishing rod, and a huge local freshwater fish, the largemouth bass, was clearly visible on it.

Lisko retracted the fishing line and felt the fish in his hand. It was about four pounds, which was not a small gain.

Li Sike was very excited at this time. He thought that the joy of fishing lies in the long wait. At the moment when the fish was hooked, he used the rod to fight the fish, the inexplicable kind after catching the big fish Satisfaction.

This fish can be regarded as the biggest gain in Lisko's short fishing career. He also took out his mobile phone with surprise on his face, took a photo of himself with the fish, and then put the fish in the bucket.

Although there have been a lot of gains in the bucket, there is no one as big as the one just caught.

"Yue~" Zhang You also rode a lap back at this time.

He was a little out of breath, and this journey of riding made him feel like he wanted to go back to the days when he was carrying a steel gun and galloping on the endless prairie.

He got off the horse, tied the quark skillfully to the tree on one side, and his tight nerves began to relax, and then sat next to Lisko on one side.

"Uncle, how do you feel?"

Zhang You didn't breathe well, couldn't speak, just gave Lisko a thumb.

"Comfortable, I haven't been riding for more than 20 years since I was discharged."

"It's okay. There is a lot of riding time in the ranch. Uncle can have a good time."

"Yeah, haha, you can still fish."

Zhang You is not satisfied with the ranch now. He looks at the turquoise lake in front of him and the water birds flying over it from time to time, and he feels a lot more open.

"Hey, did you just catch this fish?" Zhang You inadvertently skimmed the bucket on one side. The bucket was originally half the fish. The water level rose a lot, and he saw the perch in it at first sight.

"It's not that small," Zhang You reached out and hooked the mouth of the fish with his fingers, and lifted the bass out of the bucket. The bass kept swinging his body and beating with the tail.

Zhang You almost slipped away without mentioning, and quickly grabbed the tail with the other hand.

"This is the biggest fish I have caught so far. You caught it when you just went horseback riding."

Zhang You looked sad, if he didn't leave, he might be the one who caught this fish.

"The fish in this lake are not small," Zhang You has never caught such a big fish in China, so Laomei still has plenty of resources.

Zhang You made up his mind that he would come to fish when he was fine later, and he would definitely catch a fish bigger than Lisko before going back.

After catching this big fish, today’s fishing is complete, and Zhang You didn’t want to continue. He worked hard for the whole afternoon. Before Lisko came to catch the big fish, he threw back the smaller fish in the bucket. In the lake, only a few turtles and a larger carp were left, plus the big fish.

After packing the fishing rod and the stool he brought, Lisko led the horse and walked to the castle with Zhang You.

"Xiao Li, I heard you are a writer?"

The two walked a few steps, and Zhang You opened the conversation.

"Yes, uncle, I have written a few books and they are selling well."

Li Sike responded modestly,

"Well, is there a Chinese version? Show it to my uncle, because I don't understand English."

"Yes, when I go back, I will get you some copies. I sold my copyright to a Chinese publishing house, and I can buy it in China."

"Sold to China? Then your book must be well written. What do you write about? Popular or romantic?"

"Serious literature."

"Serious literature?"

Hearing this, Zhang You's turn was surprised. He always felt that those who wrote serious literature were old men with gray beards, and young people preferred to write love books.

"Then I must read carefully."

The two of them had already returned to the castle while chatting. Zhang You carefully put himself by the lake, putting his muddy shoes on the door, put on slippers and walked in.

"Have a few fished."

Li Feng just brought the food to the table.

"A lot of them, look at them."

Zhang You was a little proud to show her the bucket. In China, every time he came back from fishing, he was always a few small fishes. Li Feng was often mocked. Today is his chance to comeback.

"It's okay."

Li Feng saw the huge bass at a glance, and unexpectedly praised his husband.

"What kind of fish is this? It was also caught in the lake? You are good at it."

Zhang You knew that she had misunderstood that the bass was not caught by herself, but she had to accept it.

"It's a bass, I said my fishing skills are fine, but I don't have many resources when I am in China."

"My dishes are all done, you should do yours."
